I'm thankful for the installation project. I believe that this will be a great way to end the semester, and ever since I watched the Gossip Girl episode where some artsy-mysterious-bad boy woos Serena by creating a snow-themed installation project as her Christmas present, I wanted to be exposed to more moving, living art (yes, I watch Gossip Girl often. They have great music and clothes. Sue me.).
I'm really excited for our idea of mirrors everywhere! I think if we can project our found (?) footage off of the shed and reflect/refract it amongst the mirrors, the response would be awesome. I'm concerned about getting mirrors, though. I can contribute about three good sized mirrors, but even if we each bring three, that would not be enough to get the effect we are going for.
I'm also concerned about how we will project it (where we will get a projector), and how to make our project more "filmic". I think I would like to portray the elements through film--a digitalized version of fire, maybe water, and maybe behind the scenes of fans pretending to be "real" wind. I'm personally at a loss for earth, though.
Maybe we could explain through mirrors and projections how film distorts and exploits the elements....
